 Jerstin Crosby, a member of the Raleigh, NC artist collective Team Lump, travels to Chicago to participate in a group show at Heaven Gallery.
Words and photos by Jerstin Crosby who's part of the Raleigh, NC, artist collective Team Lump.
Just returned from an epic car ride with Orvokki from North Carolina to Chicago to Pittsburgh and back to NC. Set up some of my work in a group show at Heaven Gallery on Milwaukee Avenue in Chicago, called "In That Gold Land". The show was put together by the raddest human I know, Thad Kellstadt, and was sponsored by Harold Arts. "In That Gold Land" featured work by Erika and Heidi Anderson, Corey Antis, Matt Barton, Jacob Ciocci, Stephen Eichhorn, Allison Grant, Adam Grossi, Jesse Hulcher, Thad Kellstadt, Ladyboy, Jim Lingo, Kevin Molloy, Jae Ruberton, Molly Schafer, Bill Thelen, Josh Tonies, Frank Van Duerm, Nicholas Wylie, and myself.
The night before the show opened on the 16th, Thad's lady friend, Jesse McLean had an opening for her solo show at Three Walls in Chicago. We also checked out the new contemporary wing at the Art Institute of Chicago. Yikes! It was ok, but totally packed as you would imagine, and there was a stage right outside the entrance with bad music blaring. Made it even more difficult to get into the art. Also, Orvokki and I had just been to the MCA in Chicago to see the Buckminster Fuller show and the Olafur Eliason installation, which we thought was beautiful. After the Heaven opening we drove from Chicago to Pittsburgh, and got a sneak peek at Josh Tonies recent wall painting at the Mattress Factory annex in the Mexican War Streets neighborhood of PGH. -Jerstin Crosby

I want to live in this painting.
This is one of my paintings on canvas from the Community News and Events bulletin board,.....I know what you did last summer.
Outreach feels good
UNITE!!!
I guess they were looking for something to do later.
A cordial meeting between strangers.
Matt Barton, former Pittsburghian, made this block party suitcase. Hard to tell from the photo but it blares booty music, and has a strobe in the back, all the characters move up and down to music...seriously.
Raddy McRadderson, Josh Tonies, 3 paintings
Orvokki and I stopped by to see the Olafur Eliason installation at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago. This room soaked all color out of everything. Her bright red pants were gray.
Nicholas Wylie, of Harold Arts. They sponsored the show at Heaven. Good people.
Jacob Ciocci
Jesse McLean, of the power duo, Thad n' Jesse. She has some great video installations at Three Walls right now.
The other Thad n' Jesse
Ben Russell, Chicago-based artist in front of the Jacob Ciocci / Jim Lingo collab paintings.
We head for Pittsburgh on our long vehicular journey.
Pretty city.
Don't be bitin'!
We met up with Josh Tonies after his flight back to Pittsburgh to check out his wall painting at the Mattress Factory annex in the Mexican War Streets.
Its based on several experiences, some images he shot from a plane and a firework display he saw outside his studio where he lives and works in the town of Braddock outside PGH.
Josh had a very short time to install all new work at the MF. It's an annual show called Gesture, where they invite artists at the last minute to create some site- specific work.
Bye PGH
Goodbye roadtrip, goodbye big oil and AAA trip tik

| TrustCorp @Lebasse (+Los Angeles)
TrustoCorp's all new work for their exhibition at LeBasse Projects in Culver City, Los Angeles is a perfect continuum from past work that embraces the bipolar "have/have not" socioeconomic identity of Los Angeles, which they recently established their new studio in.

| The Sound of Dust
I didn't know if you came across this video yet, but I ran into my friend Brian Hanson yesterday who helped film and edit it. It's a film short documenting the work and philosophy of Huntington Beach surfboard Shaper Tim Stamps. Super rad and really inspiring! Anyhow take a peek.

| Murals at Harry Wirtz Elementary
Last year, Eric Caruso a teacher at Harry Wirtz Elementary School (Paramount, CA, near LA) had an idea to invite some artists to paint some murals at the school because there wasn't an arts program for the kids. That brilliant idea resulted in some awesome murals by artists Seitaku Aoyama, Yusuke Hanai, Rich Jacobs, Tim Kerr and Albert Reyes.

| Daniel Chen @The Book and Job Gallery (SF)
The Book and Job Gallery (San Francisco) really stepped it up with the opening of Daniel Chen's loveBlast on May 4th. Complete with a doorman, piano player, old fashioneds, and some really nice paintings, I could hardly believe I was at the Book and Job. The paintings varied in size, and the show was balanced nicely between them, the spray-can work on the walls, and the smaller drawings displayed throughout. The kind notes Chen wrote on the walls are certain to brighten your day, and the rest of the work is definitely worth a look. It was a very classy evening and I hope they continue to intersperse shows like these into their schedule in the future

| Gary Baseman Interview
Gary Baseman's retrospective "The Door is Always Open" at the Skirball in LA opened recently to massive crowds in a huge celebratory opening party. The exhibition is so complex and personal, delving into Baseman's background, family history, and all the layers of prolific work that he has done over the years. After the opening festivities winded down, I caught up with Baseman for an interview. We discussed the underlying meaning to some of the components of the show and how it felt for him, coming from such an honest personal perspective in putting this massive show together.

| Mark Mulroney at Ever Gold (+Photos)
Fertile Menace, a new show of Mark Mulroney's (NY) work opened at Ever Gold on May 4th and it's not one to be missed. It is intelligently hilarious, with jokes riffing off sex, Foucault, and the body, and while it makes you laugh it's also going to make you think.

| Sanjay & Craig Premieres Saturday

| Michael Garlington & The Metaphysical Fundraiser at 111 Minna
Although I missed the opening of Northern-California photographer Michael Garlington's newest show, Constructed Realities, I was fortunate enough to see the work still up during the Metaphysical fundraiser a couple weeks back at 111 Minna. Metaphysical fundraiser, an auction to benefit Wayne Ernzer. --- The ghoulish photographs in their heavy, hand-made frames are reminiscent of photos from the old west, and the glass crucifixes, complete with fetuses and guns, emphasize the accumulated time within the works themselves. Whether you're looking at the frames, the photos, or both, this show deserves a visit, and a walk through the golden archway Garlington constructed around the front door.

| ARYZ at Fifty24SF
ARYZ (Spain) opened his newest gallery show at Fifty24SF last Friday and, if you live in the Bay Area, you need to go. This dude can obviously paint, and he doesn't need an entire building to show his impecable skill. The show has lots of small works on paper which contrast his highly-defined line work to his hard-edged painted objects. The contrast between the hard and soft was the most striking thing to me about his work, since I had never seen it in person before, and the washes blend with the thick paint seamlessly. The show also contains a larger work on canvas, a huge head suspended in the back of the room, and a big wood sculpture of a wolf figure. This diversity in such a small space was impressive, and those of us that went to the opening even got to meet the man in person. If you didn't make it out this weekend, check it out before May 31st when it closes and these works will be off to some very happy new homes.

| Hard Time Mini Mall @The Shooting Gallery
The Shooting Gallery handed over the reins to the Red Truck Gallery (a New Orleans based gallery) which curated their new show, Hard Time Mini Mall and opened the it on Saturday night. This is my favorite show (so far) in the Shooting Gallery's new space and was packed full of art, a mini bar, and cowhide rugs. The Red Truck Gallery chose works with clear craftsmanship and it was easy to see in Ian Berry's denim assemblages and Chris Roberts-Antieau's awesome quilts. The space was completely packed, making it hard to see each piece individually, but this show deserves a second trip anyway. I look forward to spending more time with the chandeliers, automatons, and paintings before the show comes down on May 4th.
